'Dateline' to Focus on Michael Jackson's Face - Fri Jan 17, 8:52 PM ET

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - NBC News is ready to give singer Michael Jackson (news) his prime-time close-up, novel nose and all, but the self-proclaimed King of Pop is not happy about it.

A special edition of NBC's news magazine "Dateline" next month will focus on Jackson's face and how the reclusive singer's appearance has dramatically changed over the years along with the highs and lows of his career, network executives said on Friday.

Jackson's publicist in Los Angeles expressed outrage at the concept.
